Hold Me

Another one for today...also Madison. This picture is from a trip we took to Carowind's in Charlotte, NC. We were all so tired, Madison especially. We were in line for one more ride and she just couldn't take it! I picked her up and she was asleep in about 5 minutes. We waited while Mark and Emily rode, lol...

I had alot of fun with this one! I used Basic Grey's Sugared Collection this time...

To start, I cut a mat for the picture from some pink cardstock and inked the edges brown. I decided I wanted something behind it to make it pop a little more so I used some golden yellow cardstock and made a scalloped circle out of it, which I also inked the edges of. I just traced a page of a chipboard album I got at Michael's onto the back of the cardstock and cut it out. Once it was behind the mat, I thought it made a perfect place for the journaling. :)

Next, I added the cute giraffe and hearts, which are chipboard stickers that I thought would add a little something extra to the page. I think it worked well!

To finish it off, I put the title on, which started as raw chipboard (Basic Grey Hip). I inked it brown to make it stand out, and the color matches the giraffe's spots perfectly!

Note: As a past member of the Artful Delight design team, I received the monthly kit free of charge, but please be assured that my opinions are my own! Anything I have posted about any of the kits is how I truly felt. ;)
